Peckham Hair and Cosmetics closed yesterday afternoon when protestors arrived after a clip of a man, believed to be shop owner Sohail Sindho, with his hands around a woman's throat was shared online. The video shows a man appearing to tighten his hands around her throat as she was escorted from the building.

This boy, this man just strangled me. Get off me, get the f*** off me.' Mr Sindho has since claimed that a row broke out over a 'no refunds policy' on some hair products, when the woman allegedly took some items from the shelves and tried to walk out. Speaking to TV presenter and reporter Antoine Allen, Mr Sindho said: "Choking means like… it looks like I'm choking her. "It's not choking - at the moment one hand was at the back. I was like, detaining her." He added: "I definitely have regrets, that's why I'm talking to you. When I told the police officer I didn't want to press charges, these are the regrets at that time." On whether he would act the same way if he could go back in time, he said: "No I wouldn't behave the same. I just wanted to keep her inside. It wasn't intentional." And addressing how he would react if he saw the same happen to his wife or daughter, he continued: "I would react the same way that people are reacting. "The second thing I need to think about, I should ask my daughter what she has done, 'have you done something'."
